If your are talking about s shell search then # of subshells equals n-1. So if n=3 the number of subshells is two.

If your are talking about periodic chemistry the number of subshells for n=3 is six.

If your are talking about the Weriner progression then ss= n!/(n-3)!

If you mean in the 3rd energy level, then the answer is 9 subshells. 1s + 3p + 5d = 9. If you mean the 3rd shell, such as the d shell, then the answer is 5 subshells.
